Settings, Themes, and Keyboard Shortcuts
Agent API Token
When an admin enables the Require Agent API Token setting, each agent uses their own Freshdesk API token rather than a shared admin token. This ensures all actions are performed under the agent’s own identity.
First-Time Setup
On first open after the setting is enabled, agents see a one-time setup screen:
- Find your personal API token under Freshdesk Profile Settings → API Key.
- Enter the token and create a password to protect it.
- Click Submit. The board loads using your personal credentials.
Entering Your Password
After the initial setup, you’ll be prompted for your password each time you open the app in a new browser or session.
Forgot Password
If you forget your password, click Forgot password on the prompt screen. You’ll be taken back to the token entry flow where you can enter your API token again and set a new password. Your previous password is invalidated.
Rotated API Token
If you regenerate your Freshdesk API token, the app detects the authentication failure on the next API call and prompts you to re-enter your new token. Enter the fresh token, keep or update your password, and the board resumes normal operation.
Light and Dark Theme
Kanban Board Pro follows Freshdesk’s light and dark theme setting automatically. All UI elements — columns, cards, panels, and toolbars — are optimised for both themes.
Keyboard Shortcuts
Press ? anywhere in the app to open the keyboard shortcuts reference. Every shortcut listed in the panel is active and ready to use.
